Question
How should one choose appropriate Chinese medicine for the adjustment of a baby’s weak spleen and stomach, and kidney yin deficiency?
Answer
According to the baby’s symptoms, it is recommended to adopt a Chinese medicine treatment that strengthens the spleen and stomach, promotes digestion and relieves stagnation, and nourishes yin and supplements the kidney. This should be complemented by a reasonable diet and maintaining a good mood. Baby’s height growth is approximately ten centimeters at birth, and weight is about twice the birth weight. However, there is a large individual difference in growth rates among babies, so there is no need to worry excessively. As long as the baby has a good mental state and no diarrhea, it is fine.
